Months before the official November 18 launch of Nintendo Wii U, it appears that Nintendo already has a certified hit on its hands. Despite a lukewarm press reception and a launch line-up that consists of a slew of ports of games already out on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, gamers have gobbled up every pre-order option from retailers like Best Buy, GameStop, Walmart and Amazon.
Releasing first in the eye of the holiday season is definitely an intelligent move by the big wigs within Nintendo HQ. Ensuring maximum sales, and an early push for a sizable install base from the start.
The Nintendo Wii U entertainment system is also landing in gamings atmosphere with arguably the greatest launch line up in the history of gaming. Which will for sure play its heavy handed part to make sure that the Nintendo Wii U entertainment system continues to move units off shelves, and keep a warming smile on the face of gamers all around the world.
Not only do the bleeding edge next generation capability within the the architecture of Nintendos new baby stand out. The new innovative touch screen function will forever change the way the consumer experiences home console gaming. A change that comes standard with every unit. A change that I believe will believe will set a new standard for how gaming is enjoyed, while paving the way for competing consoles down the line.
Me and many other consumers alike have been ready for a new generation for years now. With the technical prowess, and next generation graphical capability of the Nintendo Wii U entertainment system and its standard functions. We the consumer finally get our first taste of the future.
Rated E For Everyone
Nice one and hopefully more hits to come
Come on... Who DIDN'T expect this to happen? Seriously, after the Wii fiasco when it came out lol.
Again, none of this means anything in two years if third parties don't consistently support the console. Also, if the gamepad is durable enough for kids to use it.
Doesn't really mean much when there are so few units... even going by the numbers he uses in the article there won't be much more than 2 3 million units... shortage does not equal success
